This book is a handy primer about the types of herbal antibiotics that are available and how and when to use them. Since many common illnesses have developed resistance to commercial antibiotics, more people are seeking natural remedies whenever possible. Doctors tend to encourage this trend, so, if you have a personal doctor, please discuss using herbal remedies with him or her. If you do not have one, consult the staff at your local herbal health store. Most stores have printed pamphlets about the herbs they sell.
Also, you must tell any herbal consultant about the medicines you take daily and the allergies you may have. Some herbs are absolutely wrong for you if you have a condition like high blood pressure or diabetes. Herbs may seem natural and harmless remedies, but they can pack a really powerful punch. Many herbs are part of pharmaceutical compounds, and some are actually poisonous. Others, like lobelia, have to be used cautiously; too much can be fatal.
Fortunately, many herbal preparations come in capsule, pill, or tincture form. These are easier to swallow, and you do not have to worry about strong odor. Valerian, for instance, in its original form smells like old sweat socks. It is quite possible to eat a bulb of garlic, but garlic breath is something to be avoided.
Although this book was written using carefully selected internet sites, it is really a good idea to buy an authoritative book on herbal usage. You should also check for bound updates from time to time. Remember, the internet itself is not fact-checked. Always look for an authoritative source, and do not trust advertisements.
The following topics will be discussed:
- Systematic Antibiotics – those that work throughout the entire body
- Localized Antibiotics – those that only work on certain bodily systems
- Facilitative or synergistic herbs
- Antiviral Herbs and Essential Oils
- Antibacterial Herbs and Essential Oils
- Preparing Both Types of Herbs for Humans
- Antibacterial Herbs for Cleaning
- The Controversial Herb - Hemp
